Chapter 305: Chapter 304 : Caspian is here!

“F*ck!” Victor cursed angrily as he made his way toward his parents' table while wiping the blood off his hand.

“What happened?” Theodore asked as he scowled at his son. What was this brat scheming at now, he wondered.

“That bastard priest bit me!” Victor complained as if it was not his fault.

"Bit you?" Iris asked.

“Why would he do that?” Elena asked with some concern. “Are you injured?”

“No… The blood is his. He was making trouble, so I punched him…” Victor replied righteously.

“And?” Theodore asked. 

“He bit me!” Victor said with an aggrieved tone.

“You already said that… Why did you punch him in the first place? Is he ok?” Thodore asked as Elena grabbed the wine glass Lara was trying to secretly taste. The poor woman had no idea that wine was no longer harmful to the little girl… It was never harmful, the elder dragon's bloodline was already enough to combat the effect of Alcohol.

“He is still kicking…. I wanted to force him into the dragon costume, but he dared to refuse,” Victor said as if the priest was the bad guy.

“So what’s now?” Mike asked as he secretly passed El another glass containing some wine to give to Lara. The little girl deserved a drink at her brother’s wedding!

“Everything will be fine. As an old man, he needs to change his old views, so it will take another 15 minutes to 'convince' him,” Victor said, "Lily is already on it!” he added mysteriously.

“How is that exactly?” Yulian asked nervously as some very dirty thoughts crossed his mind. He could imagine his poor sister giving that old man a b…. NOOOOOOOOO!

“Just forcing some strong wine down his throat, and performing some hypnosis. Any old man will start to act sensible after some… WHO THE FUCK ARE YOU?” Victor suddenly paused and asked, pointing at Yulian before looking at Alice and then back at Yulian.

“He is my boyfriend!” Alice said proudly, grabbing Yulian’s arm as she rested her head on his shoulder. Making the poor young man completely forget every other thought in his mind.

"Your boyfriend? Since when?"

“Didn’t you tell me that you investigated her boyfriend?” Elena turned and asked Victor who was standing behind her with a frown. Lara used the opportunity to taste the wine… She spat it moments later. It was not to her liking. 

“Ahh….” Victor hesitated as Alice slid her finger across her neck threatening him. He swallowed.

“Oh…So it's that one! I never saw his photo….” Victor said slowly as if he was a bad liar.

“I see…” Elena was not convinced.

“Nice to meet you at last…..” Victor turned and said to Yulian nervously as he grabbed the wine glass El handed him from behind Elena’s back after tasting it. She seemed to have liked it as she drank the whole thing and was now drowsy.

“Nice to meet you too… Congratulations on your wedding!” Yulian replied.

“Thanks…” Victor said as he inspected Yulian.

“Why don’t we see the brides? Where are they?” Alice asked.

“They will appear at the ritual… This is for the atmosphere!” Victor explained.

“Ohh...”

“Victor… Did you greet your grandfather and grandmother?” Elena suddenly asked.

“Not yet… Why?”

“Why would someone need a reason to greet his grandparents! Go see them before the ceremony starts!” she scolded pointing at a nearby table.

…

Victor sighed and made his way toward the table occupied by his maternal grandparents and their not-so-successful offspring.

“Hi, Grandpa…. Grandma… Uncles… Aunt…Cousins…” Victor said awkwardly as he greeted his grandfather Kalvin and his grandmother Willow… He also nodded to his aunt, uncles, and cousins who buried their heads into their extravagant dishes. “I am really happy that you came!” he said.

“Oh... Victor!” Willow said as she grabbed Victor and kissed his face. He was now her favorite grandson. “You look really handsome… Just like your grandfather did at his wedding!”

“Thanks…” Victor said as he secretly cursed at the opportunistic old woman.

“Victor… I want to talk to you about some of the news I got…” Kalvin suddenly said.

“Is it urgent?”

“Nah… it’s about some info I got about an upcoming event… I thought you would like it…”

“Then I will contact you about next week…” Victor, who knew what this was about, said. “You know…” Victor smiled lewdly, making his uncles and cousin look away in envy.

“I know, I know…” Kalivn chuckled. He wished he could also marry these many wives. Nah, Willow was more than enough for him. After Lily gave her that pill, they were having a honeymoon every night… No one needed to know that, especially Victor who could read it all over his grandfather's smirking face.

“Victor… The men at the door took my phone… Can you get it back?” Willow suddenly said. She wanted to make a video call to her friends and brag.

“Sorry grandma, all phones are forbidden for security reasons… If you want a photo to show to your friends, just gesture to any of the girls carrying cameras to the side… They will be more than happy to take your photos and we will send them to you a week later after reviewing them!” Victor explained pointing to some girls who were standing next to the hall's walls like prostitutes with cameras.

“Ohh.. good…good…” she nodded with a smile, Victor really understood her. What a good grandson!

Victor sighed and then paused. as his communicator beeped.

“What?” he asked as he moved away from his grandparents' table.

“Someone wearing a mask had just entered the hotel. He fits the profile you gave us on Caspian. And Yin is about to go crazy telling me that he is a demon!”

“Where is he?” Victor asked.

“He had just walked in with an old man using a golden invitation. Its ID indicates that it is one of those we sent to the Player’s Council… Shall we guide him to the main or secondary venue?”

“The main one… He is one of the main actors today!” Victor said as he closed his eyes and focused on the array. He was using it to have a parametric View of the entire hotel.

Inside the elevator, he could see him. A young man was standing arrogantly with a servant behind him. This guy was that of Caspian without a doubt.

"There is something else…"

"What?"

"Caspian presented three cheap incense sticks as his wedding present, " Alpha said coldly, knowing what this represented.

"Noted… Just follow the plan and tell Yin to calm down!" Victor said as he squeezed his fist then quickly moved toward Luliana who was sitting with her family and a blue-haired man. The Von Astrom representative.

“Victor, right? Congratulations on the wedding!” the Von Astrom representative said casually to Victor who stood behind Luliana. 

“Thanks… “ Victor said. He knew that this man looked at him with disdain, but he didn't care. “Please enjoy the feast!” he added with a lazy smile then nodded to Sirius, Nova’s father, and Atlas, his son. They were sitting there with white faces, afraid that their scheme might be discovered. Their standing in the family was on the edge. If news of Nova’s escape were to be known, they would surely be punished severely.

“Lady Luliana…” Victor said as he bowed closer toward Lulian’s ear. “Caspian is here… He will enter this venue at any moment… Don’t reveal a thing. He will probably wait for the ceremony to begin before acting! Victor whispered, making the woman tense all of a sudden.

“I understand…” she said nervously.

Victor nodded then retreated as a bead of sweat dropped from the nape of his neck. There was a beautiful tan-skinned woman with black flowing hair there sitting next to Luliana. A woman he didn’t notice at all from afar because she was wearing an artifact that made her seem unimportant.
